EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "The Dispute in the Bacon Trade in Ireland, Police protecting a Drover and his Pigs in Waterford" captures a significant moment in Irish history. Created by William Small after an original artwork, this print offers a glimpse into the tumultuous times of 19th-century Ireland. In this scene, we witness police officers valiantly safeguarding a drover and his precious cargo of pigs amidst a heated dispute over bacon trade. The image is filled with tension as the drover anxiously looks on while clutching onto his livestock. The imposing presence of the police serves as a stark reminder of the unrest that plagued Ireland during this period. "The Dispute in the Bacon Trade" sheds light on one aspect of Ireland's agricultural industry and its impact on local communities. It symbolizes not only economic struggles but also political tensions surrounding meat production and distribution. Small's attention to detail is evident throughout this engraving, capturing both the liveliness of Waterford's streets and the expressions etched upon each character's face. This piece was originally featured in The Graphic magazine on January 23,1897 – further solidifying its historical significance. As we gaze upon this lithograph today, it serves as a reminder of Ireland's rich past and how art can encapsulate moments that shaped nations.
